I was trying to create a XF . Created XF template type by copying the wknd's XF template type.
But when I'm trying to create XF template using the created template type, I found a strange situation. All the .hidden group components are not present in the allowed components list. But I need those components to create my XF.
As a next step I created policy and added components directly into the policy through crxde. Then I was able to see the required components in my templates but still not in the allowed template list. Also those components are added via crxde (through policy node) missing the styles. just content only able to see after authoring.
Anyone has come across such situation?

Hi,
You can see the logic here, how the components are hidden

Hi @Linu ,
Hidden components are considered as to be used by developers for reference from another component. A 'componentGroup' property set to '.hidden' or any name starting with period (.) means the component will be hidden for authors to use.
Thanks,

Yes, Thanks for the update. But I could see the .hidden group components used in templates for the project I'm working on. May as you said it is not adobe suggested way of development.
